I've just made the best yorkshire puddings!

JodieO · 4 Dec 2007 at 17:41

Wow they came out huge! Plain flour, little bit of milk, pinch of salt and 4 eggs. I usually use 2 but using 4 really topped the old ones by miles. They tasted so much better! I also used more oil and muffin tins instead of shallow ones. I might be able to get a pic up later a I got them on the video camera, the normal camera died yesterday and still need to get another. Made enough for 12 and they really were massive.

Yummy

enough for 12 eh! by my calculations there is less than 12 in your house, therefore at least one must be sent to me in an email attachment

The trick is using deep tins and getting the oil mega hot

as long as they werent an empty shell of a pudding, you know, where they raise like crazy and have a big void in the middle, because that does my head in.

Seconded. Get the tray REALLY hot and you can't fail.

+ leaving the mixture to settle for a few hours (over night even better) in the fridge before cooking

When making pud's, it's the hot tin/oil that cooks them, not the oven - thus why you get the "cup" shape. Just to point out the importance of mega hot tin/oil.
